AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1111!!!1!11one one!!one1!
Today, I recieved a package in the mail. Hmmm, wonder what it could be!?!?
Lets see whats inside!!!
4 brand new, forged pistons! 9.5:1 compression, ceramic coating on top (tan color), and teflon coating on the sides! Theses *****'s are good for 800+ hp
Since I'm doing extremely radical cams, with A LOT of lift, overlap, and duration, I had them include nice large valve reliefs.
These pistons have awesome oil holes for better lubrication and cooling, it also has oil holes in the pin bores!
Just correcting one of the mistakes made by GM
They are custom pistons made by CP Pistons.

cool looking pistons cameron. I have no clue what any of the **** you said means, or how good the pistons actually are, but if they'll help you achieve your goals, that's what's cool.

Ok, well the ceramic coating, helps the pistons take the heat from combustion. The teflon coating on the sides helps the pistons slide on the cylinder better. The oil holes, allow the oil sprayed up from the squirters to escape to the side of the piston between the cylinder and piston, to help lubricate it, and cool it better.
